    From Ithaca College

    Whether they are winning Pulitzers, launching nonprofits, anchoring broadcast news, leading multibillion-dollar companies, or revolutionizing patient care (among other accomplishments), students who graduate from Ithaca College “learn different and leave different.”

    Founded as a music conservatory in 1892, IC offers students a unique blend of academic theory, demanding practice, and high-stakes performance (learning, trying, and doing) to build a resilient mindset for life. Students find their people in nearly 200 organizations while they create award-winning projects, volunteer, philosophize, and connect.

    With 150 waterfalls nearby, Ithaca is a top-ranked college town and thriving city of art, music, and festivals. A vibrant community, IC students come from 49 states, two U.S. territories, and 45 countries. An IC staff member founded International Pronouns Day.

    At IC, students can find, face, and be themselves in a transformative environment where progress never stops.
